Ivoryman I love those handles. Great looking knife.

Ivoryman I like that one. That's how I like to find knives, dirty and corroded and bring them back to life.

And I'm a big ballistol fan too!

More shots of the '75 and the '73 Half Whittler twins for the Colonel and Philco, thanks gents, glad you like the offering, you must have good taste. The '73 is the better looking and better shape too, no rusted insides or pits. Both have great snap, great action, smooth, perfect fit and finish, sweet click, solid lock up and great color. Love carrying these, unnoticed in the pocket, unencumbered by the weight, small enough to fit any pocket, doesn't scare. '75 is used so it won't show the use. Hard to beat knives and music from the '70s. Didn't know how good we had it at the time.

There's an Imperial scout knife on "What are you carrying right now, what's your favorite EDC?" forum, page 747 with before and after of the clean up job if you're interested. Also took the initials off an Eisenhower MOP on the "What's in your pocket" page 8. Where else can I see your projects?

Seems like this page has been neglected or forgotten lately so here's a 6308 from '75.

Looking good Ivoryman. As to mine, im afraid I don't bring mine back to the level of polish that you do. Those look great!

Joe,that's dandy Maher and Grosh.I think Ulster made my M&G farmers jack,Roger(peanut740) would know more about it.He's a M&G guy.

Ivory,you have some dandies and clean them nicely.Thanks for the before and after heads up on the other thread.

Thanks Colonel, philco, and wlf. Fellow appreciators of restoration no doubt.

Thank you, Lyle.
I'm very pleased with that knife. My sense is that it's pretty old.
Being a pearl probably makes it harder to pin down the maker.

Some great knives posted here. I like that 6308, Ivoryman.

Here is a Fight'n Rooster pattern that I am especially fond of.

Me too Mel! That's a real looker.

A tree was taken out a few blocks away at some apartments. Got permission to grab it. The grounds crew guy actually pumped his fists in celebration at me as he rolled by in his golf cart, seemed quite jubilant that he didn't have to deal with it. Hauled knotty pine today and will be splitting for days. This S&M Keystone swell center was in the pocket, can't get enough of it lately. Love the blade options, love sheep foot. So light, balanced with good vibe and blade choice, smooth refined look. Love the fluted bolsters, the round ends, the deepest, coolest, uneven jigging I have. Elegant to me. Dead cool. Great knife and I like pulling it out and looking at it.

Colonel - that Walden 804 is a fine looking knife.

Ivoryman - that Schatt & Morgan is a beauty. I like the blade assortment on that knife.

Thanks for the kind words about my Fight'n Rooster, fellows.

Lyle - somehow it does not surprise me that you like that Fight'n Rooster pattern. When closed it is very like another pattern, some kind of Jack, I think they call it ...

: This Northfield and Fight'n Rooster are ver similar in size and shape.

It would be really great if GEC made a version of that knife as a whittler!

Ivoryman · Post by **Ivoryman** » Mon Jul 27, 2015 11:10 pm

Man Mel, great looking stag, shield, curves on that Wheeler Basin, what a classy and classic looking whittler. Love the main blade. Very cool.

Ivoryman · Post by **Ivoryman** » Fri Jul 31, 2015 11:00 pm

2004 S&M swell center Whittler. 1975 Case swell center Half Whittler.

Dinadan · Post by **Dinadan** » Mon Aug 03, 2015 11:19 pm

Ivoryman - that Case and Schatt & Morgan are very nice knives!

Here is a Case 6383.

The scrolling on the bolsters is hard to capture in a photo.

But in my opinion, it is what makes this knife a very fine knife instead of a fine knife.

Ivoryman · Post by **Ivoryman** » Tue Aug 04, 2015 12:45 am

Great Case there Dinadan thanks for the compliment. Here's a similar one, minus the scrolled bolster and blade etch.
